bowlerama

surprisingly, last night was really enjoyable. joshua, alyssa, samantha and i went to sherman bowling alley due to my free game coupons. each and everyone of us hates bowling, but it was still fun. afterwards we played a game of pool and then sat in sam's car and listened to some music. joshua and i came home and watched some futurama before bed.

the weather is beautiful today. bright blue skies, soft breeze, and just hitting seventy. i have to appreciate these days because i know that they will be short lived, and winter is creeping around the corner. i need to invest in some warm boots since the leather ones i got from aldo last year have fallen apart. a few more pairs of thick tights would be nice as well, since i absolutely refuse to put away my skirts for the cold weather.

on another note, joshua would really like to get his and i's music project going, especially now that i've got my macbook working again. i had inspiration for a song last night while lying in bed and tried to record while he was away today. it didn't work out as i imagined, but i assume these things take time and i'm still not up to par on my recording skills.

Simple Fix

Last evening, after creating this blog, i made a weak attempt at going to sleep. However, i was all jittery from drinking too much coffee too late in the evening and absolutely had to do something with myself. I looked around my room at all of the clothes that i always intend to "do something" with and decided that i should actually start / finish a few.

Sometime this past week i picked up a pair of old Levi's from the Rescue Mission up the road from my house. They fit me perfectly in the waist but not so much in the legs (i basically have spaghetti-noodle legs). A simple alteration and a quick snip of the length and my 80's Levi jeans have turned into a pair of high waisted shorts!

In addition to the shorts, (which i realize i'm probably a little bit too exited about) i made some simple changes to a plaid h&m dress that i own. I never liked the straps much because they were so thick, so i cut the straps off and made them into little bows to attach to the front of the dress.

Finally, i took a dress from f21 that pretty much looked like a slutty clubbing dress and made it into a romper. i look forward to wearing it on a bike-ride because its now super comfortable.

Anyway, i should probably go play disc with joshua before he goes crazy and i have to leave for work.

farewell, blog.
